Cable Woes

I've been blaming it on my Dell, but it turns out my Dell is just fine. I system restored six times today trying to undo the nonexistent glitch in the computer.

It was the stupid modem all along. I've had the internet crap out on me dozens of times, sometimes for three or six hours at a time, in the past six months. I kept assuming that I had fixed the problem through various efforts on my end, because the connection eventually came back. Usually after lots of system restores, connection repairs, and turning the machine on and off thirty eight times. Since it would usually come back on after one of those attempts, I assumed that it was fixed through my moronic efforts.

Nope. The modem just sucks.

Right now I'm in and out of connecting. I have a cable guy coming tomorrow between 2 and 5, supposedly.
